Why make Layered Greek Dip?

For the last few of years of hosting game days; I have made dips and served them with chips. From Mexican 7 layer dip with tortilla chips to Spinach Artichoke dip with potato chips and from regular hummus and pita chips to Indian style chutney with papad; I have made it all. 

This year I decided to make something different. Greek ingredients find a permanent spot in my pantry so I picked this dip for my party. The BEST part about this cheese-free dip is the ease with which it comes together. With a preparation time of under 10 minutes; this, make-ahead dip pairs well with pita chips, vegetables or to enjoy with a spoon! 


The dip includes layers of Greek Yogurt, hummus and vegetables. The dip is finished with Chobani® Savor™ Whole Milk Plain Greek Yogurt topper. Have you tried this topper yet? It is plain yogurt in an easy-to-use, resealable squeeze pouch for a mess-free topping you can feel good about incorporating into your favorite meal and snack recipes! 

Swapping Chobani® Savor™ topper for sour cream is a smart alternative to boost nutrition and keep calories lower, without sacrificing on taste. 

Chobani® Savor™: avg. 25 calories; sour cream: 60 calories per 2 tbsp serving. 

Find Chobani® Savor™ topper with all of your favorite Chobani® products in the yogurt aisle at Walmart.

Wondering if the dip can replace the Mexican dip? YES, I promise! This dip has seven layers too; just that they are cheese-free yet filling and delish. The layers in this dip are:

1. Chobani® Plain Greek Yogurt 
2. Hummus of your choice
3. Lettuce
4. Onion, tomato and cucumber
5. Sliced Olives
7. Cilantro, mint and scallions

You can get everything at Walmart. It is my one stop shop for all my Big Game needs!

The layers are balanced in taste, texture and flavors. A dip full of colorful ingredients, this one will soon become a family favorite for sure. Whether it is game-day or movie night; New Year eve party or birthday parties; this dip is PERFECT for all occasions! 


Get the dip right each time

While the dip is pretty easy to make; there are a few things to keep in mind while making it. No one likes watery dips and keeping a few things in mind will yield a PERFECT dip each time! 

  • Make sure you have Greek Yogurt. It should be really thick, so that it does not make the dip soggy
  • Drain ALL the liquid from the olives. That helps in making the dip liquid free 
  • If you have washed the lettuce leaves just before making the dip, ensure that they are drained well 
  • Layer the yogurt and hummus first. Then add all the vegetables. Finally, add the Chobani® Savor™ Whole Milk Plain Greek Yogurt topper
  • Make the same dip in single serve glasses if you would like every guest to enjoy their own dip! 


Now with all the information about the dip and why to make it; here is the recipe to enjoy the dip for your game day party!
